Sheer Pleats

I created this #1103 Hapi Harmony Jacket using my sheer pleat technique as featured in the book Fantastic Fabric Textures.

 

 

 

Copper Sheer fabric makes a dramatic change to a Mustard Yellow cotton and a Lime Green Batik.

Dimensional Resin Buttons were the inspiration for color choices!

To create the front band I first appliquéd squares set on point down the center of the band. Then I added a 1" wide double folded layer of bronze sheer right down dead center.

A single layer of the sheer is applied over the whole band and stitched on the center foldline.
When folded to form the front band the squares become triangles with what looks to be a bound edge (which is really just that flat 1" piece folded in half).
